is reluctance.
i thought some time ago about how it takes a lot for me to start studying, but once i begin, i can't seem to stop. until i fall asleep.
still, it pains me to see, beyond my window, swirling leaves and rustling branches, while i am trapped within, with books for companions. makes me wanna grab a tiller and chiong out the door.
there and back again.
if i could, at one sweep, understand everything about how the universe works, from junk dna to space time. after which, if i feel that it was better off not knowing in the first place, i wish to then be able to eradicate all memory of such knowledge, and return to a life of ignorance.

and yet again, some of the fun in life is the challenge learning and understanding new things by yourself.
ah well. physics was challenging, not altogether fun. maths was... satisfying.

off the top of my head.
my dad introduced me to
heavy water today. all of sudden i think i know what i want to do my ee. either that or deuterium, or
yellow boy. firstly, they mean more than the sound at first - "dad, stop talking nonsense. there's no such thing as h
30." (btw, it's D
2O.) secondly, it's chem, and probably means i'll be able to mess around in the lab.
someone very notable in the sailing community has had to consult my dad.
get well.
